More than likely it was from an offer that was given to PBA members.  I could be wrong though.  I would say I'm at least 51% confident.  PBA members sometimes get offers on equipment before any company decides to advertise of a new ball coming out.

Core and cover prep are the same as the Raptor Talon.  Difference being the use of Turmoil HFP Reactive. 

Based on how Motiv is describing the ball, it may be a fit between the Raptor Talon and the Cruel Intent.  I personally don't have a need for either ball or the Jackal. 

I am curious about this release.  How many people need an exact fit between the Talon and the Cruel Intent?  The Cruel Intent is listed as "late hook" but it isn't skid flip.  The Jackal is listed as "delayed hook", so to me, it might be a bit stronger than the Cruel Intent (based on cover strength) but I wonder how much overlap there will be.

I was hoping more for the Vanquish core with a pearl cover, but I dont think I'll be able to pass this one up

I don't think this is out of the question for a future release though, do you?

I don't. but I can't wait to see some video of the Jackal. So many good choices right now it's hard to decide on just 1. #CollegeStudentChoices

Nice ball. I've had my heart set on the Raptor Talon for awhile but last season I had the Raptor and was partially pleased with it. Didn't feel confident to pull the trigger and get the Talon. Will have to see the videos of this ball since I bowl better with Motiv's pearl and hybrid balls better than the solid ones.
